Swift 5.0:

UIDevice.current.orientation.isLandscape 
UIDevice.current.orientation.isFlat
UIDevice.current.orientation.isPortrait
UIDevice.current.orientation.isValidInterfaceOrientation

isFlat: Indicating whether the specified orientation is face up or face down (The device is held parallel to the ground with the screen facing downwards or Not).

isValidInterfaceOrientation: Indicating whether the specified orientation is one of the portrait or landscape orientations.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

If you have set some views to landscape form manually, so "isLandscape" value is not correct.

In this case you can use this condition:

if UIScreen.main.bounds.height < UIScreen.main.bounds.width {
    print("LandScape Views")
    print("Portrait Views")
}

For example I wanted to play all videos in landscape form while my app was only for portrait form, so in video views I used this condition in order to check if the view is landscape or not, independent of the phone orientation.
